jetAVIVA appoints Bobby Jensen to MD

Jensen also holds an Airline Transport Pilot certificate and a Citation 525 type rating.

 jetAVIVA has appointed Bobby Jensen as managing director as it looks to boost its expertise in the Citation M2 and Citation CJ3 markets. 

Jensen brings more than 25 years of aviation experience and nearly two decades of sales leadership experience with OEMS including Beechcraft and Textron. 

“Bobby’s experience, integrity and deep understanding of the Citation markets make him a natural fit for jetAVIVA,” said Ben Dow, vice president of sales at jetAVIVA. “Our clients rely on us to provide unmatched expertise throughout every transaction, and Bobby’s extensive background with the Citation M2 and CJ3 platforms further strengthens our ability to deliver exceptional guidance and results. We are thrilled to welcome him to the team.” 

Before joining jetAVIVA, Jensen spent nearly a decade in a variety of customer-facing and sales support roles at Textron including new aircraft sales. During his time selling new Citation aircraft, he found particular success in the Citation M2 market. Based in Wichita with his family, Jensen is also a graduate of Kansas State University.

“As managing director of jetAVIVA, Bobby will help continue our leadership position in the pre-owned Citation market,” said Dow. “For more than 20 years, jetAVIVA has served as a trusted advisor to Citation owners and pilots, and Bobby’s addition reinforces our commitment to providing best-in-class specialisation across every segment of the Citation family.” 

Senior managing director Jason Deifik will continue supporting clients in the Citation CJ3+ and CJ3 Gen2, while Jensen will focus on early-model Citation CJ3 aircraft.
